TLC Forever: The Documentary
TLC, the top-selling American female group of all time, is the subject of a new feature-length documentary, TLC Forever. The film tells the story of the group’s journey through the eyes of the remaining members, Tionne « T-Boz » Watkins and Rozonda « Chilli » Thomas, who provide commentary while watching themselves on-screen in performances and behind-the-scenes footage. The documentary highlights the ups and downs of the group’s career, including their social messaging and the troubles they faced, such as Left Eye’s court battles after burning down her boyfriend’s house.
The Importance of Vulnerability
Chilli believes that vulnerability is important for authenticity, and the documentary showcases this by revealing Tionne’s chronic disease and the struggles she faced. The film also discusses the group’s youthful experience and how they rose to the top because they felt invincible. However, Chili also learned the hard way that business is business, and it’s not personal. She had to pick and choose her battles and not tackle everything, or she would drive herself crazy.
The documentary is not just for die-hard fans of the group, as it’s full of music video highlights, vintage MTV news footage, and clips from awards shows. It’s a must-see for anyone who wants to learn more about the group’s impact on music and culture. TLC Forever airs on Saturday, June 3rd at 8/7c on Lifetime and will be available for streaming the next day via the Lifetime app.
